James Vincent McMorrow - We Don't Eat
[00:15.66] if this is redemption, why do i bother at all
[00:22.62] there's nothing to mention, and nothing has changed
[00:31.37] still i’d rather be working at something, than praying for the rain
[00:39.12] so i wander on, till someone else is saved
[00:46.37] i moved to the coast, under a mountain
[00:54.13] swam in the ocean, slept on my own
[01:02.37] at dawn i would watch the sun, cut ribbons through the bay
[01:09.64] i’d remember all, the things my mother wrote
[01:17.12] that we don't eat until your father's at the table
[01:24.62] we don't drink until the devils turned to dust
[01:32.40] never once has any man i’ve met been
[01:37.12] able to love
[01:40.39] so if i were you, i’d have a little trust
[01:52.12] two thousand years, i’ve been in that water
[01:59.38] two thousand years, sunk like a stone
[02:07.87] desperately reaching for nets
[02:11.11] that the fishermen have thrown
[02:15.88] trying to find, a little bit of hope
[02:23.13] me i was holding, all of my secrets soft and hid
[02:30.63] pages were folded, then there was nothing at all
[02:39.16] so if in the future i might, need myself a saviour
[02:46.12] i’ll remember what was, written on that wall
[02:53.67] that we don't eat until your father's at the table
[03:01.37] we don't drink until the devils turned to dust
[03:08.87] never once has any man i’ve met been
[03:14.12] able to love
[03:17.12] so if i were you, i’d have a little trust
[03:29.62] am i an honest man and true
[03:34.12] have i been good to you at all
[03:37.86] oh i’m so tired of playing these games
[03:42.13] we’d just be running down
[03:44.12] the same old lines, the same old stories of
[03:48.62] breathless trains and, worn down glories
[03:52.37] houses burning, worlds that turn on their own
[04:03.25] so we don't eat until your father's at the table
[04:10.28] we don't drink until the devils turned to dust
[04:18.53] and never once has, any man i’ve met been
[04:23.74] able to love
[04:28.24] so if i were you my friend
[04:33.04] learn to have just a, little bit of trust.
